| Abstract: | L-ikona tal-Mellieha ghandha tigi meqjusa fost l-eqdem Ii jezistu f'Malta. Ma nafux Ii hawn xbiha tal-Madonna qadima izjed minnha. Fl-ewwel zmien tas-seklu tmintax, l-ikona meqjuma kienet tal-pittur maghruf Francesco Zahra. Dan il-pittur maghruf tas-seklu tmintax ghamel pittura tal-Madonna fuq dik Ii kien hemm ghax il-qadima kienet fi stat hazin hafna. Imma, fl-1972, l-iskultur u restawratur Samuel Bugeja ghamel xoghol delikat u ta' responsabbilta kbira biex jirrestawra dik l-ikona tal-Mellieha. Waqt Ii kien qed jaghmel xoghol ta' restawr fis-Santwarju tal-Mellieha, Iil Bugeja rrizultalu Ii taht il-pittura ta' Francesco Zahra kien hemm sfond ta' kisja bid-deheb. |
